Proposals



Spritual Lifeform Physiology
This is basically a part of the justification we use for the abstract existence type 1, spirits do not manipulate something, spirits are manipulated. Therefore, this should be removed.

These are general abilities not specific to Spiritual Lifeform physiology. This page should only include applications specific to Spiritual Lifeforms. Therefore, should be removed.

Ultimate Skills
If a character has Ultimate Skill level willpower, they also have Spiritual Lifeform level willpower, but being an Ultimate Skill user does not give you Spiritual Lifeform physiology, determinant factor is the "willpower". So listing Spiritual Lifeform physiology as if it were an Ultimate Skill ability doesn't seem right to me. Therefore, this should be removed.

Rimuru Tempest (Light Novel)
This should be changed to "Selectable Spiritual Lifeform Physiology".


Resistance
to: Soul Manipulation (Unaffected by Hinata's Astral Bind)
Since Gluttony does not have a soul, it should have "immunity" level resistance to soul manipulation.

The crumbling was speeding up now. His body was falling apart, particles of light scattering from it.

"Well, I'm not alone, actually."

"...?"

"But you can take your time asking my partner about that."

With that, Rimuru broke off the conversation. His hand was pointed at Michael, and then:

"Consume all things... Azathoth, God of the Void!"

The ultimate, most powerful of skills bared its fangs for the first time in this world. And then Soul Glutton-its tranquil powers irresistible to anyone-swallowed everything in Michael's body.

~OTL: Volume 19, Chapter 4
Michael continued to be disintegrated until he was completely absorbed by Rimuru, but he was never erased. Therefore, existence erasure for this technique should be removed.

Shizue Izava (Light Novel)
Intelligence: Above Average (Shizue is a veteran adventurer considered as a Champion, being active for half a century. She is trained by the Hero and was her companion for some time. Shizue is also a capable teacher, being able to control and endear the unruly S Class students of the Freedom Academy)
In addition to what's mentioned in the profile:
At that moment, Kuro materialized sharp, formidable claws on both of his hands. These were his favored weapons, known as Scissor Claws. Although Kuro could easily secure victory using magic, he chose instead to engage in close combat with his weapon.

“Kufufufu, I shall indulge you for a little while.”

“Don’t underestimate me!”

As the battle’s intensity grew, the onlookers could only watch in stunned silence.

“A-amazing…”

“S-so this is the pinnacle…the strength of a champion reigning at the top of adventurers…”

“Incredible. I guess the title Conqueror of Flames isn’t just for show—”

Praises for Shizu echoed around her. With her flashy, fire-based attacks, it appeared to the onlookers that Shizu had the upper hand.

“Shizu-san…”

However, the reality was different from what it seemed. Some, like Cougar, realized this. Despite what appeared to be a physical disadvantage, it was Kuro who held the upper hand. Kuro’s vast combat experience was so extensive that even with all of Shizu’s abilities, she couldn’t fully grasp his depth.

~Slime Reader: Special Booklets 1-4
Considering she can keep up with the Primordial Black a little bit, that's why I think Shizue should be "at least Above Average, Gifted in combat".

Diablo (Light Novel)
Demons are Spiritual Lifeforms so Diablo should has also Mid-Godly Resurrection Negation for this.

I disagree with this part, since the Spiritual lifeform physiology is required to unlock an Ultimate skill. (Though, I wouldn't mind a rewording for the ability)
 
It's not CM, its just abstract existence, everything else looks fine.
 
Resurrection Negation sounds more like Immortality Negation Types 3, 4, & 8 imo. Everything else seems fine.

Immortality type 3 is immortality through regeneration, and there is no proof that Orthos' regeneration is negated. If his soul is destroyed, he can't regenarete anymore (he has only low-godly regeneration) and he will die. Then he can resurrected after a period of time, but such as hundred years. Immortality Type 4 is already immortality through resurrection. Immortality Type 8 is that he is immortal as long as his magicules are used for regeneration and his core is not destroyed, so this is also irrelevant.
 
Think we need like 1 more staff vote since this isn't exactly controversial to apply
 
Yep.

So the goal, then, is to move them to just being on the profiles? If so, fine by me.

I'm not sure I understand this one so I'd like clarification or elaboration on your argument about it being removed. The scans do seem to substantiate Ultimate Skill users having a high end level of willpower.

Fair

I seem to recall instances where a "soul" manipulator could affect something without a traditional soul, but it should be noted that the reason it is unaffected is due to lacking a soul, sure.

Absolutely ******* loathe the "gifted in combat" thing in premise but it is standard practice for some users and isn't against policy, so sure, agree.

Eh. If a character is "alive" when they are regenerating, that situation might be different. I'm kind of okay just leaving it as Type 4 Negation, I prefer it.

They are already exist on all profiles, but they also added them here unnecessarily.

Willpower is a power system in the series. Ultimate Skills are the pinnacle of willpower, and Spiritual Lifeforms have a similarly very strong willpower. To gain a Ultimate Skill, which is the pinnacle of willpower, one must first have Spiritual Lifeform physiology. So basically Spiritual Lifeform physiology is just a stepping stone to having Ultimate Skill. Therefore, it is not correct to list Spiritual Lifeform physiology as an Ultimate Skill ability. Spiritual Lifeform physiology should be exist separately in profiles, and it is already that way.

What do you mean by "regeneration"? Orthos, as an Archdemon only has low-godly regeneration, if his soul is destroyed he will die and will only be resurrected approximately hundred years later due to mid-godly resurrection. However, in this case, Diablo prevented his from resurrecting.

You probably thought that, Spiritual Lifeforms normally have low-godly regeneration and with mid-godly regeneration overtime. But this is mid-godly resurrection.

Okay, so the first two are just clerical errors being fixed. I'm obviously fine with that, so I approve.

On the third one: on the wiki, we have a distinction between Regeneration, and Resurrection, that being whether the given entity is dead. In this instance, as you clarify, Orthos does not have Mid-Godly regeneration, he will die before he reaches that point, and so only has Low-Godly. However, when he is dead, he can then return to life eventually via Mid-Godly-equivalent Type 4 Immortality. My stance is that preventing this would not be equivalent to preventing Mid-Godly Regen- it should be kept as Immortality (Type 4) negation, even though they are still at the Mid-Godly level. If done on a character that, for whatever reason, Diablo is unable to kill, this isn't strictly evidence he'd be able to negate Mid-Godly regen- but if he did kill them, then they would be unable to return.
 
It's possible I can't read.

Editing to say, I'm fine with it, but I do want Type 4 negation to stay on the profile, since that is strictly accurate.
